Abstract:
This animation sketch presents a production case study of how computer graphics work was designed to support and allow for director Jonathan Glazer’s live action shooting style on “Odyssey”, his latest internationally acclaimed commercial for Levi’s. The film features a man and a woman in an ecstatic state of freedom to move. They achieve this by first escaping their drab interior surroundings, relentlessly running through a succession of walls. Once outside, they run vertically up two enormous trees and upon reaching the very tip take a huge leap and launch themselves up towards the stars.
